Effects of ultrasound pretreatment on the structure, IgE binding capacity, functional properties and bioactivity of whey protein hydrolysates via multispectroscopy and peptidomics revealed. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 110:107025. [PMID: 39163694 PMCID: PMC11381472 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.107025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 07/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/10/2024] [Indexed: 08/22/2024]
Abstract
Whey protein is an important food ingredient, but it is also considered a major food allergen. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasound pretreatment on the structure, IgE binding capacity, functional properties and biological activity of whey protein isolate (WPI) hydrolysates (WPH), including WPI hydrolyzed by a combination of enzymes from Bromelain and ProteAXH (BA-WPI) and WPI hydrolyzed by a combination of enzymes from Papain W-40 and ProteAXH (PA-WPI). The IgE binding capacity of BA-WPI and PA-WPI was reduced to 40.28% and 30.17%, respectively, due to disruption/exposure/shielding of conformational and linear epitopes. The IgE binding capacity of sonicated WPI was increased, but ultrasound pretreatment further reduced the IgE binding capacity of the hydrolysates to 32.89% and 28.04%. This is due to the fact that ultrasound pretreatment leads to conformational changes including increased α-helix and β-sheet structure, exposure of aromatic amino acids, surface hydrophobicity, and increased sulfhydryl content, which increases the accessibility of allergenic epitopes to WPI by the enzyme. Multispectral and LC-MS/MS results further indicated that ultrasound pretreatment altered the conformational and primary structural changes of the hydrolysates. The thermograms showed that ultrasound pretreatment mainly altered the epitope spectra of β-lactoglobulin hydrolysates, while it had less effect on the epitope spectra of α-lactalbumin hydrolysates. Additionally, ultrasound pretreatment significantly improved the foaming properties, antioxidant activity, and α-glucosidase inhibition of the hydrolysates without impairing the solubility and emulsification properties of the hydrolysates. Therefore, ultrasound pretreatment is a feasible method to reduce the allergenicity of WPH and to improve their functional properties and bioactivity. Notably, ultrasonic pretreatment improved the effectiveness and efficiency of WPI hydrolysis, which is a feasible method to produce high-quality protein feedstock in a green, efficient, and economical way.

Abstract
Food allergy is a serious public health problem, which is mainly induced by food allergens (mainly allergenic proteins). Ultrasound can change protein structure, suggesting its potential to decrease food allergenicity. The review concluded the mechanism and influence factors of ultrasound to reduce food allergenicity. The effects of ultrasound alone on some major allergenic foods such as tree nuts, shellfish, fish, egg, soy, milk, and wheat were also discussed. Moreover, ultrasound pre- and post-treatments were combined with heating, glycation, germination, hydrolysis, fermentation, irradiation and polyphenol treatment for reducing food allergenicity were also evaluated. It was found that ultrasound induced structural changes even degradation of protein to reduce the allergenicity mainly due to cavitation effects. The reduction of allergenicity through ultrasound alone was affected by ultrasound power, time, frequency and food types, while, apart from these factors, it was affected by ultrasound order and the assisted technologies conditions during ultrasound-assisted technologies. Compared to ultrasound alone treatment, the ultrasound-assisted technology exhibited high efficiency of allergenicity reduction because ultrasound treatment caused protein unfolding to accelerate allergen modification of the assisted technologies for masking and disrupting more epitopes. Thus, ultrasound treatment, especially ultrasound-assisted technologies under appropriate conditions, was promising for producing hypoallergenic foods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The structure of proanthocyanidins (PC) contains a large number of active phenolic hydroxyl groups, which makes it have strong antioxidant capacity. This study investigated the structural and functional properties of ovalbumin (OVA) modified by its interaction with PC. RESULTS It was found that on increasing the concentration ratio of PC to OVA from 10:1 to 40:1, the free amino and total sulfhydryl contents of OVA decreased from 470.59 ± 38.77 and 29.81 ± 0.31 nmol mg-1 to 96.61 ± 4.55 and 21.22 ± 0.78 nmol mg-1, respectively, and the free sulfhydryl content increased from 7.65 ± 0.41 to 9.48 ± 0.58 nmol mg-1. These results indicated that CN and CS bonds were formed and PC was covalently linked with OVA. The PC content in the OVA-PC conjugates increased from 281.93 ± 12.92 to 828.81 ± 46.09 nmol mg-1 on increasing the concentration ratio of PC to OVA from 10:1 to 40:1. The contents of α-helix and β-turn of OVA decreased, and the contents of β-sheet and random coil increased, confirmed by circular dichroism. The tertiary structure of OVA was also altered according to the results of fluorescence and ultraviolet absorption spectra. The surface hydrophobicity of OVA-PC conjugates decreased with increasing bound polyphenol content. The conjugation of OVA to PC significantly improved its emulsification and antioxidant activity and denaturation temperature. CONCLUSION This study may provide valuable information for improving OVA's functional properties and its PC conjugates for applications in the food industry. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
In the present study, different oligosaccharides (fructooligosaccharide (FOS), galactooligosaccharide (GOS), isomaltooligosaccharide (IMO), and xylooligosaccharide (XOS)) were modified on casein (CN) via Maillard reaction. The CN-oligosaccharide conjugates were evaluated for modifications to functional groups, fluorescence intensity, water- and oil-holding properties, emulsion foaming properties, as well as general emulsion properties and stability. The results demonstrated that the covalent combination of CN and oligosaccharides augmented the spatial repulsion and altered the hydrophobic milieu of proteins, which resulted in a diminution in water-holding capacity, an augmentation in oil-holding capacity, and an enhancement in the emulsification properties of proteins. Among them, CN-XOS exhibited the most pronounced changes, with the emulsification activity index and emulsion stability index increasing by approximately 72% and 84.3%, respectively. Furthermore, CN-XOS emulsions have smaller droplet sizes and higher absolute potential values than CN emulsions. Additionally, CN-XOS emulsions demonstrate remarkable stability when ion concentration and pH are varied. These findings indicate that oligosaccharides modified via Maillard reaction can be used as good natural emulsifiers. This provides a theoretical basis for using oligosaccharides to modify proteins and act as natural emulsifiers.

Abstract
Tropomyosin (TM) is the main allergen in shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). In this study, the effects of allergenicity and structure of TM by glycosylation (GOS-TM), phosphate treatment (SP-TM), and glycosylation combined with phosphate treatment (GOS-SP-TM) were investigated. Compared to GOS-TM and SP-TM, the IgG/IgE binding capacity of GOS-SP-TM was significantly decreased with 63.9 ± 2.0 and 49.7 ± 2.7%, respectively. Meanwhile, the α-helix content reduced, surface hydrophobicity increased, and 10 specific amino acids (K30, K38, S39, K48, K66, K74, K128, K161, S210, and K251) were modified by glycosylation on six IgE linear epitopes of GOS-SP-TM. In the BALB/c mice allergy model, GOS-SP-TM could significantly reduce the levels of specific IgE, IgG1, and CD4+IL-4+, while the levels of IgG2a, CD4+CD25+Foxp3+, and CD4+IFN-γ+ were increased, which equilibrated Th1 and Th2 cells, thus alleviating allergic symptoms. These results indicated that glycosylation combined with phosphate treatment can provide a new insight into developing hypoallergenic shrimp food.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chinese giant salamander protein hydrolysates (CGSPH) are beneficial to human health as a result of their high content of amino acids and peptides. However, the formation of bitter peptides in protein hydrolysates (PHs) would hinder their application in food industry. The ultrasound assisted wet-heating Maillard reaction (MR) is an effective way to improve the flavor of PHs. Thus, the effect of ultrasonic assisted wet-heating MR on the structure and flavor of CGSPH was investigated in the present study. RESULTS The results indicated that the ultrasound assisted wet-heating MR products (MRPs) exhibited a higher degree of graft and more significant changes in the secondary and tertiary structures of CGSPH compared to traditional wet-heating MRPs. Moreover, ultrasound assisted wet-heating MR could significantly increase the content of small molecule peptides and reduce the content of free amino acids of CGSPH, which resulted in more significant changes in flavor characteristics. The changed in flavor properties after MR (especially ultrasound assisted wet-heating MRPs) were mainly manifested by a significant reduction in bitterness, as well as a significant increase in the content of aromatic aldehyde ester compounds such as furan-2-carbaldehyde, butanal, benzaldehyde, furfural, etc. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasound assisted wet-heating MR between CGSPH and xylose could be a promising way to improve the sensory characteristics of CGSPH. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Food allergies are a main public health disease in the world. Ultrasound is an environmentally friendly technology that typically leads to protein unfolding and loss of protein structure, which means it has the potential to be combined with other technologies to achieve a great reduction of allergenicity in foods. This review concludes the effects of the combined ultrasound with other technologies on food allergenicity from three combinations: ultrasound before other technologies, ultrasound under other technologies, and ultrasound after other technologies. Each combination affects food allergenicity through different mechanisms: (1) as for ultrasound before other technologies, ultrasound pretreatment can unfold and lose the protein structure to improve the accessibility of other technologies to epitopes; (2) as for ultrasound under other technologies, ultrasound can continuously affect the accessibility of other technologies to epitopes; (3) as for ultrasound after other technologies, ultrasound further induces structural changes to mask and disrupt the epitopes. The reduction of allergenicity is related to the ultrasound/other technologies conditions and food types/cultivars, etc. The comparison of ultrasound before, under, and after other technologies to decrease food allergenicity should be further investigated in the future. The combination of ultrasound with other technologies is promising to produce hypoallergenic foods.

Abstract
Goat whey protein (GWP) has a rich amino acid profile and good techno-functional attributes but still has limited functional performance for certain applications. This study introduces an innovative ultrasound-assisted Maillard reaction to enhance GWP's functional properties by conjugating it with either gum Arabic (GA) or citrus pectin (CP). Sonication accelerated the Maillard reaction, and the glycosylation of GWP was significantly enhanced after optimization of the conjugation conditions. Gel electrophoresis examination verified the creation of GWP-polysaccharide conjugates, while scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed structural modifications caused by polysaccharide grafting and sonication. The use of ultrasound in the Maillard reaction notably enhanced the solubility, foaming capacity, and emulsifying attributes of the GWPs. Among the conjugates, the GWP-GA ones exhibited the best functional properties. Our findings suggest that this approach can notably improve the functional attributes of GWPs, thus broadening their potential uses in the food sector and beyond.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA) has been considered as a nutrient carrier for bioactive, which has high nutrition value and multiple properties. Recently, proteins-phenolic acids composite delivery systems have received widespread attention. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the interaction between OVA and cereal phenolic acids (CPA) to establish delivery systems for bioactive. Spectroscopy results have found that CPA generated complexes with OVA, causing the microenvironment changes of OVA. Ferulic acid (FA), p-coumaric acid (CA), vanillic acid (VA), syringic acid (SY), sinapic acid (SI), and protocatechuic acid (PA) not only quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of OVA, but also altered protein microenvironment. Further investigation showed these complexes were formed by static quenching mode, while hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction were dominant binding forces. Meanwhile, the interaction decreased α-helix contents and increased β-sheet contents, leading to conformational changes in OVA. Besides, OVA/CPA complexes displayed an increase in hydrophobicity with a reduce in free-SH. After combination with FA, SY, CA, VA, SI, PA, it was found that all formed complexes had superior solubility, emulsifying and antioxidant activities than native OVA. Among them, OVA-PA exhibited the highest emulsifying activity index and emulsion stability index values (36.4 ± 0.39 m2/g and 60.4 ± 0.94 min) and stronger antioxidant activities. Finally, the combination with phenolic acids further improved the digestion efficiency in vitro of OVA. The OVA-CPA complexes showed improved properties for excellent delivery systems. Overall, OVA-CPA complexes could be a good carrier for bioactive, which provided valuable avenues in target delivery system application.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA) is an important protein source in our daily life. Unfortunately, the food safety problem has become more and more serious, such as protein allergy and contaminated protein. Therefore, it is necessary to detect vital proteins efficiently and rapidly. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful tool for the detection of proteins. Herein, dual amino acids functionalized covalent organic frameworks containing disulfide covalent bonds (COF@SS@GC, where G is glutathione and C is cysteine) were facilely prepared for OVA enrichment through hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) under physiological pH. The results showed that COF@SS@GC had displayed sensitive detection (0.1 fmol), good selectivity (OVA: BSA = 1:100), adsorption capacity (311 mg/g), stability, reproducibility, linearity, LOQ level (42 μg/mL) and recovery ratio (64.83 %) for OVA. COF@SS@GC also demonstrated satisfactory purification ability in the enrichment of egg white, indicating that COF@SS@GC had great potential in the enrichment of protein from complex samples.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA), the most abundant protein in egg whites, has been widely used in various industries. Currently, the structure of OVA has been clearly established, and the extraction of high-purified OVA has become feasible. However, the allergenicity of OVA is still a serious problem because it can cause severe allergic reactions and may even be life-threatening. The structure and allergenicity of the OVA can be altered by many processing methods. In this article, a detailed description on the structure and a comprehensive overview on the extraction protocols and the allergenicity of OVA was documented. Additionally, the information on assembly and potential applications of OVA was summarized and discussed in detail. Physical treatment, chemical modification, and microbial processing can be applied to alter the IgE-binding capacity of OVA by changing its structure and linear/sequential epitopes. Furthermore, research indicated that OVA could assemble with itself or other biomolecules into various forms (particles, fibers, gels, and nanosheets), which expanded its application in the food field. OVA also shows excellent application prospects, including food preservation, functional food ingredients and nutrient delivery. Therefore, OVA demonstrates significant investigation value as a food grade ingredient.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 234:123672.

Abstract
This study assessed the alteration of IgE-reactivity and functional attribute in soy protein 7S-proanthocyanidins conjugates (7S-80PC) formed by alkali-heating treatment (pH 9.0, 80 °C, 20 min). SDS-PAGE demonstrated that 7S-80PC exhibited the formation of >180 kDa polymers, although the heated 7S (7S-80) had no changes. Multispectral experiments revealed more protein unfolding in 7S-80PC than in 7S-80. Heatmap analysis showed that 7S-80PC showed more alteration of protein, peptide and epitope profiles than 7S-80. LC/MS-MS demonstrated that the content of total dominant linear epitopes was increased by 11.4 % in 7S-80, but decreased by 47.4 % in 7S-80PC. As a result, Western-blot and ELISA showed that 7S-80PC exhibited lower IgE-reactivity than 7S-80, probably because 7S-80PC exhibited more protein-unfolding to increase the accessibility of proanthocyanidins to mask and destroy the exposed conformational epitopes and dominant linear epitopes induced by heating treatment. Furthermore, the successful attachment of PC to soy 7S protein significantly increased antioxidant activity in 7S-80PC. 7S-80PC also showed higher emulsion activity than 7S-80 owing to its high protein flexibility and protein unfolding. However, 7S-80PC exhibited lower foaming properties than 7S-80. Therefore, the addition of proanthocyanidins could decrease IgE-reactivity and alter the functional attribute of the heated soy 7S protein.

Abstract
The denaturation state and relatively poor solubility of brewer's spent grain protein (BSGP) have limited its industrial application. Ultrasound treatment and glycation reaction were applied to improve the structural and foaming properties of BSGP. The results showed that all ultrasound, glycation, and ultrasound-assisted glycation treatments increased the solubility and surface hydrophobicity of BSGP while decreasing its zeta potential, surface tension and particle size. Meanwhile, all these treatments resulted in a more disordered and flexible conformation of BSGP, as observed by CD spectroscopy and SEM. After grafting, the result of FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the covalent binding of -OH between maltose and BSGP. Ultrasound-assisted glycation treatment further improved the free SH and S-S content, which might be due to -OH oxidation, indicating that ultrasound promoted the glycation reaction. Furthermore, all these treatments significantly increased the foaming capacity (FC) and foam stability (FS) of BSGP. Notably, BSGP treated with ultrasound showed the best foaming properties, increasing the FC from 82.22% to 165.10% and the FS from 10.60% to 131.20%, respectively. In particular, the foam collapse rate of BSGP treated with ultrasound-assisted glycation was lower than that of ultrasound or traditional wet-heating glycation treatment. The enhanced hydrogen bonding ability and hydrophobic interaction between protein molecules caused by ultrasound and glycation might be responsible for the improved foaming properties of BSGP. Thus, ultrasound and glycation reactions were efficient methods for producing BSGP-maltose conjugates with superior foaming properties.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA) is the most abundant protein in egg white, with excellent functional properties (e.g., gelling, foaming, emulsifying properties). Nevertheless, OVA has strong allergenicity, which is usually mediated by specific IgE thus results in gut microbiota dysbiosis and causes atopic dermatitis, asthma, and other inflammation actions. Processing technologies and the interactions with other active ingredients can influence the functional properties and allergic epitopes of OVA. This review focuses on the non-thermal processing technologies effects on the functional properties and allergenicity of OVA. Moreover, the research advance about immunomodulatory mechanisms of OVA-mediated food allergy and the role of gut microbiota in OVA allergy was summarized. Finally, the interactions between OVA and active ingredients (such as polyphenols and polysaccharides) and OVA-based delivery systems construction are summarized. Compared with traditional thermal processing technologies, novel non-thermal processing techniques have less damage to OVA nutritional value, which also improve OVA properties. OVA can interact with various active ingredients by covalent and non-covalent interactions during processing, which can alter the structure or allergic epitopes to affect OVA/active components properties. The interactions can promote OVA-based delivery systems construction, such as emulsions, hydrogels, microencapsulation, nanoparticles to encapsulate bioactive components and monitor freshness for improving foods quality and safety.

Abstract
This study evaluated the impact of proanthocyanidins on immunoglobulin E (IgE) binding capacity, antioxidant, foaming and emulsifying properties in soy 11S protein following alkali treatment at 80 °C for 20 min. The formation of >180 kDa polymer was observed in the combined heating and proanthocyanidins-conjugation treatment sample (11S-80PC) rather than in the heating treated sample (11S-80) using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The structural analyzes demonstrated that 11S-80PC exhibited more protein unfolding than 11S-80. Heatmap analysis revealed that 11S-80PC had more alteration of peptide and epitope profiles in 11S than in 11S-80. Molecular docking showed that PC could well react with soy protein 11S. Liquid chromatography tandem MS analysis (LC/MS-MS) demonstrated that there was a 35.6 % increase in 11S-80, but a 14.5 % decrease in 11S-80PC for the abundance of total linear epitopes. As a result, 11S-80PC exhibited more reduction in IgE binding capacities than 11S-80 owing to more obscuring and disruption of linear and conformational epitopes induced by structural changes. Moreover, 11S-80PC exhibited higher antioxidant capacities, foaming properties and emulsifying activity than 11S-80. Therefore, the addition of proanthocyanidins could decrease allergenic activity and enhance the functional properties of the heated soy 11S protein.

Abstract
Duck liver is an important by-product of duck food. In this study, we investigated the effects of glucose, fructose, and xylose on the antioxidant properties of glycosylated products of duck liver protein and their protective effects on HepG2 cells. The results show that the glycosylation products of the three duck liver proteins (DLP-G, DLP-F, and DLP-X) all exhibit strong antioxidant activity; among three groups, DLP-X shows the strongest ability to scavenge DPPH, ·OH free radicals, and ABTS+ free radicals. The glycosylated products of duck liver protein are not toxic to HepG2 cells and significantly increase the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px in HepG2 cells at the concentration of 2.0 g/L, reducing oxidative stress damage of cells (p < 0.05). DLP-X has a better effect in reducing oxidative damage and increasing cellular activity in HepG2 cells than DLP-G and DLP-F (p < 0.05). In this study, the duck liver protein glycosylated products by glucose, fructose, and xylose were named as DLP-G, DLP-F, and DLP-X, respectively.

Abstract
In this study, the differences in effects of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and proanthocyanidins (PC) on the functionality and allergenicity of soybean protein isolate (SPI) were studied. SDS-PAGE demonstrated that SPI-PC conjugates exhibited more high-molecular-weight polymers (>180 kDa) than SPI-EGCG conjugates. Structural analysis showed that SPI-PC conjugates exhibited more disordered structures and protein-unfolding, improving the accessibility of PC to modify SPI, compared to SPI-EGCG conjugates. LC/MS-MS demonstrated that PC caused more modification of SPI and major soybean allergens than EGCG, resulting in a lower abundance of epitopes. The successful attachment of EGCG and PC to SPI significantly increased antioxidant capacity in conjugates. Furthermore, SPI-PC conjugates exhibited greater emulsifying activity and lower immunoglobulin E (IgE) binding capacity than SPI-EGCG conjugates, which was attributed to more disordered structure and protein-unfolding in SPI-PC conjugates. It is implied that proanthocyanidins may be promising compounds to interact with soybean proteins to produce functional and hypoallergenic foods.

Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA) is one of major allergens of hen egg white with excellent nutritional and processing properties. Previous research exhibits that pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment could partially unfold OVA. This may contribute to the improvement of OVA phosphorylation. In this study, the effect of PEF pretreatment combined with phosphorylation on the structure and immunoglobulin (Ig) G/IgE-binding ability of OVA was investigated. The structural changes were measured by circular dichroism (CD), ultraviolet absorption, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The IgG- and IgE-binding abilities were determined by inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using rabbit polyclonal antibodies and egg-allergy patients’ sera, respectively. The results showed that PEF pretreatment combined with phosphorylation markedly reduced the IgG- and IgE-binding abilities. It was attributed to the changes in secondary and tertiary structure, which was reflected in the increase of ultraviolet (UV) absorbance, α-helix content, and the increase the molecular weight. Moreover, it suggested PEF pretreatment improved the phosphorylation of OVA and enhanced the reduction of IgG/IgE-binding capacity of phosphorylated OVA. Therefore, PEF pretreatment combined with phosphorylation has the potential for developing a method for OVA desensitization.

Abstract
Food allergens are closely related to their gastrointestinal digestion fate, but the changes in food allergens during digestion and related mechanisms are quite complicated. This review presents in detail digestion models for predicting allergenicity, the fates of food allergens in oral, gastric and duodenal digestion, and the applications of digestomics in mapping IgE-binding epitopes of digestion-resistant peptides. Moreover, this review highlights the structure-activity relationships of food allergens during gastrointestinal digestion. Digestion-labile allergens may share common structural characteristics, such as high flexibility, rendering them easier to be hydrolyzed into small fragments with decreased or eliminated allergenicity. In contrast, the presence of disulfide bonds, tightly wound α-helical structures, or hydrophobic domains in food allergens helps them resist gastrointestinal digestion, stabilizing IgE-binding epitopes, thus maintaining their sensitization. In rare cases, digestion leads to increased allergenicity due to exposure of new epitopes. Finally, the action of the food matrix and processing on the digestion and allergenicity of food allergens as well as the underlying mechanisms was overviewed. The food matrix can directly act on the allergen by forming complexes or new epitopes to affect its gastrointestinal digestibility and thereby alter its allergenicity or indirectly affect the allergenicity by competing for enzymatic cleavage or influencing gastrointestinal pH and microbial flora. Several processing techniques attenuate the allergenicity of food proteins by altering their conformation to improve susceptibility to degradation by digestive enzymes. Given the complexity of food components, the food itself rather than a single allergen should be used to obtain more accurate data for allergenicity assessment. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The review article will help to understand the relationship between food protein digestion and allergenicity, and may provide fundamental information for evaluating and reducing the allergenicity of food proteins.

Abstract
High intensity ultrasound (HIU) is an efficient and green technology that has recently received enormous research attention for modification of food proteins. However, there are still several knowledge gaps in the possible mechanisms, synergistic effects of HIU with other strategies and improvement of HIU equipment that contribute to its application in the food industry. This review focuses on the recent research progress on the effects and potential mechanisms of HIU on the structure (including secondary and tertiary structure) and functionality (including solubility, emulsibility, foamability, and gelability) of proteins. Furthermore, the combination methods and innovations of HIU equipment for proteins modification in recent years are also detailed. Meanwhile, the possible future trends of food proteins modification by HIU are also considered and proposed.

Abstract
There is fast increasing interest in the development of alimentary protein stabilized emulsions due to their potential applications in functional food fields. This work studied the effect of glycation degree with chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) on the emulsifying properties of lactoferrin (LF) through Maillard reaction. In the present study, SDS-PAGE and FT-IR were used to confirm LF and COS covalently binding together successfully. Intrinsic fluorescence showed that glycation with COS led more hydrophobic groups exposed to the surface of the structure and particle size increase of LF. Emulsions with 50% (v/v) oil phase and protein concentration of 2% (w/v) was fabricated through one-step shear method. Compared with native LF, emulsions stabilized by LF-COS conjugates showed smaller droplet size and lower creaming index (CI). Among these samples, LF-COS conjugates under 4 h had the best emulsifying efficiency and stability, the emulsion droplet size and the CI of which decreased 39.66% and 28.55% compared with LF, respectively. Furthermore, glycation with COS enhanced the interfacial activity of LF leading to more adsorbing amount and forming thicker layer on the droplets and gel network in the emulsions. This finding would make sense to further understand the modification of emulsifying properties of alimentary proteins through glycosylation with saccharides and develop novel protein-based emulsifiers.

Apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells induced by seleno-ovalbumin (Se-OVA) via mitochondrial pathway. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 192:82-89. [PMID: 34619275 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.09.178] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2021] [Revised: 09/21/2021] [Accepted: 09/25/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Seleno-ovalbumin (Se-OVA) was a selenium conjugating protein synthesized by the combination of ovalbumin (OVA) and inorganic selenium. In this paper, the structure of Se-OVA was characterized, and the anticancer effect of Se-OVA on hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells was investigated. Through FT-IR, UV, endogenous fluorescence and XRD assays, it was found that the structural characterization of Se-OVA changed after seleno-modification. In addition, the cell assays showed that Se-OVA could induce apoptosis of HepG2 cells by arresting cell cycle in S phase, generating intracellular reactive oxygen species, reducing the mitochondrial transmembrane potential, and triggering the Bax- and Bcl-2-mediated mitochondria apoptosis pathway. These findings revealed that Se-OVA might serve as a novel anticancer drug for cancer adjuvant therapy.

Lactose Glycation of the Maillard-Type Impairs the Benefits of Caseinate Digest to the Weaned Rats for Intestinal Morphology and Serum Biochemistry. Foods 2021; 10:foods10092104. [PMID: 34574217 PMCID: PMC8468520 DOI: 10.3390/foods10092104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Revised: 08/29/2021] [Accepted: 09/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The Maillard reaction between the lactose and milk proteins unavoidably occurs during the thermal treatment of milk. Although the impact of this reaction on protein nutrition and safety has been well-studied, whether a lactose glycation of milk proteins of the Maillard-type might affect the rats in their growth and intestinal morphology needs an investigation. In this study, caseinate and lactose-glycated caseinate were digested using pepsin and trypsin. Afterward, the resultant caseinate digest and glycated caseinate digest (lactose content of 13.5 g/kg of protein) at 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg body weight (BW)/d were assessed for their effects on the female weaned Wistar rats in terms of daily body weight gain, intestinal morphology, digestive and brush-border enzyme activities, as well as serum chemical indices. The results showed that glycated caseinate digest always showed a weaker effect on rat than caseinate digest either at the 0-7 or 0-28 d feeding stage, and more importantly, at the highest dose of 400 mg/kg BW/d, it caused obvious adverse effect on the rats, reflected by lower values of these indices. Compared with caseinate digest, glycated caseinate digest in the rats caused 0.9-15.4% and 10.6-49.7% decreases in average daily gain of BW and small intestinal length, 1.1-21.5% and 2.3-33.3% decreases in villus height and the ratio of villus height to crypt depth of the small intestine, or 0.3-57.6% and 0.2-55.7% decreases in digestive and critical brush-border enzyme activities, respectively. In addition, when the rats were fed with glycated caseinate digest, some serum indices related to oxidative stress status were enhanced dose-dependently. Lactose glycation of the Maillard-type is thus considered as a negative event of the Maillard reaction on milk proteins because this reaction might impair protein benefits to the body.
